Sole Origins
I had the pleasure to be featured in the current episode of Complex's
Sole Origins!
I had a great time with the @calico_incand @zen team filming this and
really like the outcome.
Great job @justinrching@dannyleeworks @karimwasabi @budgerodriguez
and everyone involved in this!
Although you hear me talking about Hikmet’s store being one of the first
where sneaker enthusiasts would hang out, I actually was talking about
@mad.flavor.sneakerstore when I made this statement, but it must have
gotten mixed up in postproduction.
Hikmet‘s influence on putting Berlin on the world sneaker map is obviously
undeniable and beautifully described in the episode.
Unfortunately Niklas the owner of Mad Flavor (and former employer of
Hikmet) did not make the final cut, but I think it is vital to pay respect to the
people who came before this sneaker culture
turned mainstream and paved the road for current business, like
@mad.flavor.sneakerstore or Downstairs did.
None of us featured here got where we are, without building on what
people who came before us created and cultivated. And none of us would
be where we are today, without the support of many individuals who don’t
take the spotlight. So thank you to all those hard working and passionate
characters behind the scene - you are sneaker culture!
